I am a 7th generation Oklahoman, former teacher, city councilor, and organizer running for Oklahoma's 15th Senate District. I became politically active during my time as a teacher, I received training on advocacy and activism that I carry with me in all of my grassroots organizing efforts. I have knocked thousands of doors for various candidates and causes; I have hosted many town halls, debates, rallies, and listening tours over the years. I beat an incumbent in my city council race in 2018 with 58% of the view, and intend to beat another this round.

  • Bring Integrity back to the Capitol
  • Communicate with the Community
Tax Equity is absolutely critical. Oklahoma is the 9th most regressive state in the nation for taxation, and our dollars are being exploited and so is our labor. We have to fund public services, stop the pipeline to prison, and end human trafficking.
